ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate clinical and functional results of patients with lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis treated with operatively or nonoperatively. Methods: Patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis treated either nonoperatively or operatively from 2004 to 2014 were selected from databases and a cross-sectional evaluation was performed. Outcome measures included back and leg visual analogue scales (VAS), Fischgrund criteria, Short Form-36 (SF-36) function score, and the modified Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Results: 43 patients were evaluated: 20 with nonoperative treatment and 23 with operative treatment. Baseline characteristics were similar without significant differences between groups. Mean follow-up time was 43 months (range 10 - 72) for the nonoperative group and 36 months (range 6-80) for the operative group. Significant statistical difference in favor of operative group were found in back VAS (mean 4 versus 8, p = 0.000), leg VAS (mean 3 versus 6, p = 0.0015), SF-36 function score (mean 77 versus 35, p = 0.000), and ODI (mean 17 versus 46, p = 0.000). On the basis of the Fischgrund criteria, only 10 % of patients reported excellent or good health post nonoperative treatment versus 83% for those treated operatively (p = 0.000). Conclusion: In this cross-sectional study, we observed that symptomatic patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis who underwent operative treatment have superior clinical and functional scores compared to those that underwent nonoperative treatment.

INTRODUCTION: Surgical treatment of the injuried flexor tensons is the important part of hand surgery. Tendon adhesions, ruptures, joint contcatures-stifness are only one part of the problem one is faced during the tendon treatment. In spite of improvement in surgical technique and suture material, the end result of sutured flexor tendons still represent a serious problem. THE AIM of study is to present of operative treatment of flexor pollicis longus injury with Krakow suture technique. METHODS. All patients are treated in the first 48 hours after the accident. The regional anesthesia was performed with use of turniquet. Beside spare debridement, the reconstruction of digital nerves was done. All patients started with active and pasive movements-excercises on the first postoperative day. Follow-up was from 6 to 24 months. In evaluation of functional recovery the grip strenght, pinch strenght, range of movements of interphalangeal and metacarpophalangeal joint and DASH score were used. RESULTS. In the last two years there were 30 patients, 25 males (83.33%) and 5 females (16.66%). Mean age was 39.8 years, ranged from 17 to 65 years. According to mechanism of injury the patients were divided in two groups: one with sharp and other with wider zone of injury. Concomitant digital nerve lesions was noticed in 15 patients (50%). CONCLUSION. The Krackow suture allowed early rehabilitation, which prevent tendon adhesions, enabled faster and better functional recovery.

Introduction: Rectal prolapse is a very common and self limiting condition amongst the paediatric age group in India. Majority of the cases respond to conservative management. The various modalities of management of the same include surgical as well as medical modalities. Surgical namely Thierschs anal circlage, laparoscopic suture rectopexy, and posterior sagittal rectopexy Aim - To evaluate the safety and efcacy of posterior sagittal rectopexy in children with rectal prolapse. Patients and Methods: Twenty patients aged between 1 and 7 years presented with rectal prolapse. These patients underwent posterior sagittal anorectopexy after pre anaesthetic check up. These patients were followed up at 1week, 15days and 1month for 3 months. Results: Constipation improved in 18 out of 20 patients, who had a history of constipation before surgery. Partial mucosal prolapse recurrence occurred in two patients. Conclusion: Posterior Sagittal Rectopexy is a good option in cases of rectal prolapse in children once all the conservative methods have failed. The technique is safe and effective. It has satisfactory functional results.
